Alabama water tastes like cherry wine

Because I had an optometrist's appointment in Medford this afternoon and spatch needs to practice driving, after I had gotten my eyes checked he took me out for dinner at the Woburn Bill & Bob's.



I got a roast beef sandwich with horseradish and cheese. We ate in the parking lot. It was delicious. Then we cruised around Winchester for a bit before running the evening's errands including the replacement of our shower curtain which had recently begun to disintegrate in a fashion more conventionally suited to haunted houses. The mail brought my CD of Oisín Leech's Cold Sea (2024). Tomorrow the air conditioning repair person cometh.

Ooh, thank you!! I will suggest Revere Beach and Kelly's there for an outing. She loves getting to the beach and it's hard to find an accessible one, Revere isn't too far for a day trip. She lived in Medford for years, and still knows it well, I'll mention Pete's. Sullivan's sounds good and maybe the Hanover location would work. For clams she generally gets someone to take her to Clam Box.

Griddling the bun or not is the difference between a quality sandwich and a so-so one IMO. If you cannot be bothered to griddle the bun...eyeroll...

I'm going to give her the Lyndell's info as it sounds like exactly her thing. (Gail Ann is still there?! Mass Ave used to be dotted with sustaining doughnut shops. I miss the Dough-si-Dough and their incredible sour cream doughnuts.)

You're welcome! I'm glad it's within range and I hope it works out. I wasn't sure where her epicenter was.

Legit. My favorite nearby clams come from Fresh Pond Seafood, which is no longer anywhere near Fresh Pond, but on the other hand it is currently within walking distance.

Excellent!

Verna's is no more, but Gail Ann is still there! Dough-si-Dough was the donut shop of my childhood. I have still never found a lemon-filled as good. Lyndell's reminds me of them.
